Who We Are

Welcome! We're Dawn and Kurt Hixenbaugh. We're the owners and operators of Vino et Amicis. We are wine enthusiasts and Orcutt residents. We had a vision to create a relaxing wine bar. In the Spring of 2018, our vision became a reality when we opened our doors to the public. We work hard to establish meaningful relationships with local wineries and winemakers to bring you the best hidden gems the Central Coast has to offer. We look forward to seeing you around!
